This was a fun game overall!
Easily the most irritating part was the battles though, especially the last one I think with the boss and all the monsters... the battles just took wayyy too long and weren't really fun because of that.
The story was decent and I liked the whole find the notebooks mechanic.
Level design was decent too, other than I found a lot of collisions that seems like they shouldn't have been there. Otherwise I do like how the map was laid out and how you were able to explore a little bit to find the next place to go to also.
This was a good turn of darker theme. It is hard to know where to go next though. Sadly I couldn't find the third note book. But I did enjoy the game overall.
I didn't mind the darker theming. Some areas were hard to understand where to go. Like If I go right, after leaving the house, the boss in the house with the maze is too hard to fight & seems like you need to trigger the main story quest before getting there anyway.
Some of the writing was hard to read, but not so much that I couldn't follow along.
Battles take way too long, especially with only being able to single-attack & wait for several enemies to cycle through.
I did like the artwork for the different characters. I also enjoyed having different endings at the end - based on your choice. I wasn't expecting it and did go through each one.
